Comments Thread For: Alexander's Manager: Amir Khan Fights Like an Amateur

[mojack]

He has a point he reminds me of De La Hoya a bit..

Khan's heart and chin have improved but i thought Roach would have helped him far more on other stuff though. The guy was getting nailed and nailed with uppercuts and imo that was one of the reasons why he eventually ran into problems in round 10 and his actual punch out put went down

Agreed, but i don't think it was a training issue..i think it was the fact Amir wanted to prove a point, he bahaves a lot like Pacquiao in that respect. Taking shots...but he needs to be careful..very careful.

I think alexander fights a little bit like an amateur. He is similar to khan in actual fact, just a lefty. Both guys need to work on defence. I don't see anything special from alexander, maybe he'l prove me wrong in this fight, but he looks pretty basic to me, a basic style with world class athletsicm and speed, he is miles away from the type of skill mayweather possesses. I actually think bradley is more skillful.

And how does Alexander fight?

Throw the same combination over and over for 12 rounds even though none of the punches land...

LOL
The most funny is Khan won every second of the fight against Kotelnik, and Alexander got a gift in his last fight against the Ukranian.
But Khan fights like an amateur...

Btw, Kotelnik himself fights very amateur and he outboxed Alexander landing clear punches and a nice jab.
Khan would outbox easely Alexander I think, but his chin is still suspect.

Styles make fight, and Bradley is a bit chinny and easier to hit flush than Kotelnik in my opinion.
I can see Alexander beating Bradley.

Alexander's uppercut seems to be a good weapon agaisnt Timmy's "headbutting" style.

Just watch him demolish Paulie and Kotelnik. They were two quality performances and nobody was saying how Amir fights like an amateur, maybe a bit impatient but no was was he looking like an amateur.
But against Maidana the plan was to fight like an amateur would do in a tournament and win the rounds without the risk of getting ko'd. It worked to an extent but Amir still has the tendencies to lunge forward and he looks a bit awkward.

This the pot calling the kettle black lol..I been saying for months Devon fights like an amateur,I say Khan beats Alexander...

[bojangles1987]

Alexander fights more like an amateur than Khan does. At least Khan has some ability to adjust.

[Sparked_1985]

From the two fights I've seen of Alexander he is far more basic than Khan.

From the two fights I've seen of Alexander he is far more basic than Khan.

If you've seen two you've seen enough. I've seen like five now and he always fights the same.

Funny thing is he has a point. Thing it goes for Alexander also.
